Everyone needs compassion
And love that never fails
Let mercy fall on me
When everyone needs forgiveness
Kindness of the Saviour
The Hope of the nation
Saviour, He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
So take me as you find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything that i believe in
Now i surrender
Shine a light in and
let the whole world see
Singing, for the glory of the risen king
Jesus, Shine a light and
let the whole world see
Singing for the glory of the risen king

The past few weeks, every service has been amazing. 2 weeks ago, Ignyte service was amazing. I still remember myself on my knees, really crying out in desperation for Him. Combined SP Empowerment was also amazing. It was a recharging point-- a amazing time of communion with God. Last weeks service about care and connect was also amazing. Yup, we have been having awesome services. But there is more to the services...
Listen to the lyrics of this song. It is one thing to get touched by God at the altar. But will we keep our follow-through between the altar and the door? I have succumbed so many times after an experience at the altar-- the battle is fought not in services, but in our everyday lives. If we just keep living on our past altar calls, we are going to lose the battle. Until now, I am still fighting this battle. No one really knows what I'm talking about, but I'm not exaggerating: the battle is intense. So intense. I would love to say "Breakthrough happened immediately after the altar call." No, it is not like that. The battle for me is slogged out; it is ongoing, excruciating, tiring, frustrating. And just like that, when you have fought this battle with perseverance, victory comes. A gradual and painful victory, yes. But a victory worth every fighting for. A victory I am fighting for.
"I ask God why I am under such heavy attack. Why this war is so intense I can't take it anymore. Then God reminds me of the warrior I will rise up to be if the war is won..."
